A Note on Hot Springs in Southeastern Alaska

Abstract

In an earlier note a survey was made of hot springs in interior Alaska which had been reported much earlier by Waring, and in this further account the coverage is extended to southeastern Alaska. Following directions recorded by Waring I attempted to reach four hot springs on Baranof Island. … Of those springs visited in southeastern Alaska, it is evident that the ones at the heads of Tenekee Inlet and Teka Bay are worthy of further study, and of inclusion into a system of land classification which would preserve them in their natural and unique state for future generations.
